Here's my problem; I have a website which redirects visitors from one place to somewhere else and gathers some data while doing that. One problem is that, probably because I'm using a header redirect, the HTTP_REFERER does not change. I want the site where I'm sending to either see my site as referrer or not see a site as referrer at all. Is this possible? Because as far as I know the information is stored and sent by the browser and cannot be manipulated in PHP. I've seen some pretty clever things in the past though, like a PHP browser detection class, so I thought I'd ask anyway. If someone knows a JavaScript way to get this done, that's almost as good
The problem is that the visitor should not see that he's being redirected, and neither should for example the google bot. As far as I know, that can only be accomplished with the header() redirect.
